well, last night was my first all nighter of the year on homework. It wasn't too bad. I guess, I should have started on my war novel before 11:00 PM on the day before it was due. I don't really regret it though, so maybe I shouldn't have. It was a really good book, "The Moon is Down" by John Steinbeck, who I am becoming increasingly more and more fond of the of him I read. It seems as if school is a punishment of some sort. As if I've done something wrong that makes me deserve to be treated miserably, like...like a slave. Only istead of accomplishing things for me master, I'm doing busy work constantly, and not benifiting anything by doing so. I realize that I am not suffering alone. My bretheren neil united, but helpless against this tyrant that is the public education system. We suffer dutifully, some even truly believe that they can find pleasure in this captivity, but they are fools, blinded by personal ambition from the truth. We are opressed. We are overworked. We are slaves to our elders, elders, not betters.
